@@luke_angling I love fishing with Lamprey but getting hold of it is not easy. The mackerel tail has got to be the bait I have used the most but it is easy to get hold of . But I have been using a lot of smelt just lately. I suppose if a bait is used a lot on a stretch of water the pike mite start to ignore it???. Let's hope they don't start ignoring my Lamprey it costs too much lol 😆 😆😆. Cheers 👍🎣🎣🎣
